The Cadence Academic Network helps build strong relationships between academia and industry, and promotes the proliferation of leading-edge technologies and methodologies at universities renowned for their engineering and design excellence.

A huge knowledge exchange platform for academia to network with industry. We are looking for academic speakers to talk about their research to the industry attendees at the Academic Track at CDNLive EMEA and Silicon Valley.

Meet Your Power, Performance, Area, and Schedule Targets

Designs are getting bigger and more complex, making power and area usage critical components. It’s a tall engineering order to meet, made tougher with schedules that continue to shrink. How can you achieve your quality objectives without missing project milestones?

The Cadence® integrated full-flow digital solution offers massive parallelization that works to your advantage. Other point-tool-oriented flows create inefficiencies due to parallelism, with multiple bottlenecks between synthesis and implementation and between optimization and signoff. By using full-flow parallelism, Cadence avoids those bottlenecks, and provides a fast path to design closure and better predictability. Where traditional tools fall short, our solution has been developed to help you meet power, performance, and area (PPA) targets and deliver your products on time.

What’s more, when you tap into the integrated tool suite, you’ll be able to achieve much more powerful results.

Up to 20% better PPA

Up to 10X faster turnaround time and capacity gain

Full-flow timing and power correlation for better design convergence

Early signoff optimization for reduced iterations

Optimized for Advanced Nodes

Cadence developed its revolutionary full-flow digital toolset to address today’s FinFET and advanced-node FD-SOI design challenges at the creation, implementation, and signoff stages.

Key Benefits at Advanced Nodes

Massively parallel technology facilitates the handling of the large data size and complexity of advanced nodes

We're always up against tight deadlines to deliver innovative and reliable designs to our automotive customers. While looking at the digital offerings from Cadence, we've seen an opportunity to improve our quality of results while significantly reducing cycle time.

Minimizing the cost of test is crucial in high-volume, price-sensitive markets like embedded processing. The Modus Test Solution is showing a 1.7X reduction in digital test time on one of our largest and most complex embedded processor chips

The size and complexity characteristics of our latest design required a timing solution that could handle more than 50M cells quickly and efficiently. We determined that the Tempus Timing Signoff Solution was the right timing platform to address our signoff analysis and closure needs
